LIBYA: The Libyan Marine Biology Association has raised concerns about the worsening environmental conditions in the Marsa Dila area, located west of Zawiya. They blame the problem on the large amounts of waste that have built up in the sea due to a nearby landfill along the coast. Local fishermen have reported high levels of pollution and are warning that this situation has turned into a marine environmental disaster. This crisis threatens biodiversity and disrupts fishing activities, which are essential for many families in the region. In a pressing appeal, the association urged all relevant authorities to act quickly by creating a comprehensive plan for managing coastal waste and implementing long-term solutions to protect marine ecosystems and support the local economy.
- Lord, we pray that the authorities will respond swiftly and effectively to the environmental crisis in Marsa Dila, creating a comprehensive plan to manage waste and protect marine ecosystems (The Holy Bible, Jeremiah 5:22).
- Lord, we pray for the fishermen and families affected by the pollution, asking for divine support and provision as they face the challenges posed by the environmental disaster (The Holy Bible, Psalm 104:25).
